I have a couple mission critical servers (3TB) that I formatted with JFS.
I have been completely happy with the results and have yet to see any
filesystem corruption.
A JFS Fsck on the drive takes only a few seconds even after a crash.
I have created and moved various large files without a problem. I have
also pulled the plug during write intensive operations.
Just wanted to add another vote for JFS. :)
